No, it's pkg_admin(1)'s job to do that.  The normal usage is:

  # Download latest vulnerabilities file
  $ pkg_admin fetch-pkg-vulnerabilities

  # Show current vulnerabilities in installed packages
  $ pkg_admin audit

It is distributed outside of pkgsrc deliberately, so that it can
easily be updated and downloaded independently across branches.
